Abstract: Abstract This paper presents a study of the behavior in firms receiving the government’s policy support. It is emphasized that firm’s attitude is an important factor to policy planning. Resource-based theory is also adapted to firm’s response to the innovation policy of industrial cluster. In the perspective of complex adaptive system, policy responding has suffered from the influence of some factors such as comprehension, firm’s scale, entrepreneur, benefit, innovative capability, demands for R&D and neighbor firms. Based on echo model, the paper discusses the mechanism of cluster firm’s response to innovation policy. Furthermore, it describes the important role of various factors play in the process of policy responding and trigger condition. Finally, the behavior matching modes and self—adaptive responding flow have been analyzed. Findings show that the fundamental of firm’s response to policy is resource—depending and self—organizing evolution ensures policy responding better and better.
